Rare, Aged & Vintage

Cohiba Lanceros 2001

The Cigar

The longest of the Cohiba's original three sizes created in 1966 and one the cigar of choice for Cuba's late president, Fidel Castro who also used to given them as personal gifts. 

The unique extra fermentation that is conducted on the Seco and Legero of all Cohibas lasts for eighteen months and is conducted at the factory in cedar barrels. This extra age creates a unique taste. The famous Cohiba flavour is most often described as ‘Grassy’, although others have noticed tones of vanilla, cocoa and coffee. It is often remarked upon how this extra fermentation makes the taste ‘smoother’ and more refined while retaining a depth and character that is entirely distinct. A prime example of a modern Habanos

This launch has been showcased during the Virtual Travel Retail Expo 2020, planned by Moodie Davitt Report and held from October 12th to 16th, 2020, which is being organised as a virtual event for the first time in its history.

In addition, the Humidor complements the unique Trinidad flavour, sought after by smokers who prefer a medium-strength blend and heavy ring gauge Habanos.

The wrapper, filler and binder leaves specially selected for Trinidad Robustos Extra come from the renowned area of Vuelta Abajo * in the Pinar del Río * region, Cuba*. These Habanos have been made “ Totalmente a Mano con Tripa Larga “- Totally Handmade with Long Filler- by expert Cuban torcedores – cigar rollers-, thus achieving the distinctive aroma and quality of these Habanos.

long with more than 70 companies from around the world, Habanos, S.A. is present at the Virtual Travel Retail Expo 2020 with a virtual stand in the tobacco pavilion under the Gold category. Where, in addition to Trinidad’s Robustos Extra Travel Humidor, undoubtedly one of the most anticipated launches, other prestigious Habanos products are also being exhibited. Highlights include the new Romeo y Julieta Línea de Oro, the most premium of the brand, with three new vitolas, Dianas, Nobles and Hidalgos. As well as the H. Upmann Magnum 56 Jar, a product that was released last year at the Cannes Fair and is now available to enthusiasts of what is considered to be the finest tobacco in the world.

It should not be forgotten that the Trinidad name is a tribute to the town established in Cuba in 1514, called Santísima Trinidad, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988. Trinidad’s origins as a Habanos brand date back to 1969; as with the Cohiba brand it was only used for many years as a state gift for high-ranking foreign dignitaries. It was in 1998 that this brand was finally made available to smokers around the world, but in very limited quantities.
